    Nice little almost-shukubō near Yoshino. The monk who runs this place was super friendly and very helpful. The temple is surprisingly hard to get to from the station, but the monk came and picked us up.

    I really liked that the proprietors picked me up and dropped me off at the train station. The meals were wonderful and the staff very friendly.

    This is a calm and happy place filled with great hospitality and spirituality. You are invited, but not obliged, to attend the buddhist morning prayer in the adjacent temple.
